Let’s talk about Axol

Since I already do enough blabbering for the Pokemon series, let’s go into another particular series that I’m a fan for.

So, let’s talk about Axol from SMG4.

I’ve kinda said this before in a previous blog, but Axol is honestly my favorite character out of everyone else in the SMG4 cast. He’s got a cool and unique design, Kevin Lerdwichagul gives him a pretty neat voice, I loved his whole gimmick with bringing anime characters to life, he rolls off well with many other characters, I enjoyed every second of him in the Anime Arc, and he has a super entertaining personality.

However, I personally feel with recent appearances, Axol’s character has kinda taken a nosedive for the worst. While he has lost the ability to use bring anime characters to life once the Inkweaver was broken in the Internet Graveyard, I honestly didn’t mind that change as much as others. Now that it’s been a long while since the Anime Arc has ended and we already have two characters with enough anime jokes in them as it is (Fishy and Whimpu), I feel it’s kinda nice for Axol’s character to step back from anime-jokes. Plus, him deciding to use fruit to create his new shows is honestly a funny turn to me.

My main problem with him nowadays has to do with his friendship with Melony. Before I continue on, I just want to make it clear that I don’t hate Melony. In fact, I LOVE Melony. When she was just a watermelon, I found her “Plank-like” characteristics to be amusing, and now as a human, I really find her to be both funny and enjoyable. Her design’s super cute and unlike many others, I was actually happy for her when she became human. It’s just her whole thing with Axol I have a problem with. Not only do I find the whole ship teasing between the two to be super cringe and disgusting (doesn’t help that this is the third gross interspecies ship that fans go crazy for, after Mario x Meggy and Saiko x Fishy), but how it’s played out really downplays Axol’s character.

By that, I mean that it really makes him one big simp. Normally that wouldn’t be a bad thing, but seeing Axol become an absolute simp for Melony is really sad since he used to be very flashy and Johnny Cage-like, especially during the Anime Arc. Not only that, but the large majority of the main males of the cast are already simps as well. Luigi simps for shirtless men, Bowser simps for Peach, Fishy and Whimpu simp for anime girls, and Bob and Swagmaster simp for literally anything with boobs. And while Mario, SMG4, Toad, Steve, Rob, and the Wario Bros. don’t necessarily simp for anything in particular, all of their respective obsessions in the show (spaghetti, memes, candy, chickens, corn, and money) could, in a way, be classified as technical simping due to how big all of their obsessions are.

With that said, Axol acting like a simp for her just ruins his character a little. You can easily replace him during his simping moments with either Fishy or Whimpu and nothing would change that much. Not meaning to turn this into a big Wasted Plotential blog, but if I wanted to establish a nice, platonic friendship between Axol and Melony, I would’ve done this: when Melony becomes human, due to how anime she looks, Axol could use this as a way to get his old anime fame back that he had with Inkweaver. He tries to have Melony act in anime-esque skits, but because of her sleepy nature, things don’t work out as planned. This eventually causes Axol to snap at Melony, hurting her feelings and causing the rest of the gang to resent him for that. Now guilty over yelling at Melony, Axol apologizes to her, she accepts it, and the two become friends with Axol putting his old fame life aside.

Also kinda wished he still talked with Meggy as well... since he didn’t even vocally say goodbye to her when she left for Port Aurora.

Full Sketch Commish for my bois

[tarotomorrows]

“Oh yeah new record! Betcha can’t beat that Mugs!”

“Believe me Cuphead I wouldn’t even dream of trying…”

Heres a wip of a illustration, just a sketch so far I’m just too scared to color it haha wish me luck 🍀

“It’s like you were made to solely annoy me and only I exist to take it”

Hi, hi everyone! Heres the designs for Cuphead and Mugman in my what I’m now gonna call Inkweaver (Toon AU/Story Idea).

So here Mugman and Cuphead are both 19, however relatively younger than the rest of the cast. This is due to irl factors that they are based on old rubber hose cartoons, made with the same process as old colored toons where, however they still had that modern technological influence.

Basically the whole saying “old soul”, being raised by their grandfather Elder Kettle certainly nailed down the way they walk n talk.

Some basic info (low key reference for my future ref):

Cuphead works as a delivery/mail man

Has a major fascination with the mechanics of cars, to the point he’s been collecting scraps from the junkyard to make his own.

Mugman works as a book curator at the local town library

He’s a hug history buff, especially those regarding ancient cities and anything to do with the powers they held, to which he develops his own theories on how they would’ve have been used

The whole casino devil deal did happen when they were little and their may still be some lingering unsettled issues between them about it.

Ironically both Mugman and Cuphead have favorite cartoon actors, for Mugman it’s Betty Boop and for Cuphead it’s Tom and Jerry.

However the two have a soft spot for Felix cartoons, as those where the shorts Elder Kettle would put on to get the two to quit fighting.
